Made in Cloister Foundation and nonlineare, an independent curatorial initiative, present "And yet we believe that life is full of fortunate possibilities," the collective exhibition that inaugurates the second year of the biennial program RINASCITA, conceived and developed with nonlineare, an independent curatorial initiative.

The exhibition continues the Foundation's research path on the relationship between different contemporary artistic practices, space, community, and cultural production, in dialogue with the sixteenth-century Cloister of the Church of Santa Caterina a Formiello, a symbol of urban transformation and regeneration.

And yet we believe that life is full of fortunate possibilities is an invitation to reflect on persistence — understood as an archive of survival, a practice of mutual aid, and an ethical imperative; ultimately, as a stubborn commitment to repair and reassemble what has been broken. The exhibition looks at love as an extended landscape of vulnerability, error, and deliberate impurity, framing it as the work of "not despairing" and questioning how to evoke an agency — albeit fragile — in the face of multiple forms of adversity.
